150ml ... 60 minute

x ... 1 minute

x = 150ml * 1 minute / 60 minute

x = 2.5ml

Explanation:

it is known that the client receives 150ml of the solution for over an hour. convert the hour into minutes, then we do not know how much liquid a client receives in a minute. we cross multiple the values to get the value in ml. for every one minute the client receives 2.5ml of the fluid.
